Fundraising Dinners

"I don't understand people being upset over a fundraising dinner. Fundraisers are as old as time. President Obama has gone to many, they just had one, Jay-Z and then Beyonce, just had one for him. It cost $40,000 a person. If you can afford to give, whether it's Republican, Democrat, you give; if you can't, you don't. You give $5. It's a personal opinion, a personal choice."

Dairy Queen Sculptures

"I wanted to thank the owner of the Dairy Queen for having the revolving sculpture show at his business. I think it's just such an addition to Loveland, such a beautiful addition to our sculpture city."

Political Punches

"I just wanna say it's pretty ridiculous how everyone is bowing down to Romney when all he's doing is throwing aggressive punches at Obama. And I think it's disgusting and I would never vote for him in my lifetime. I can't believe people are saying things like, for example, the conservatives finally embracing Romney -- maybe because he knew Jesus was punching Obama in the face. Does that sound very Christian to you? I don't think so."

Beer Consumption

"You guys speak about the state being an obesity state, one of the top ones for fat people. Look at all the beer that we drink in this town and this county and stuff. No wonder we're fat. Beer's got sugar in it, calories, everything. So maybe if we stop drinking a lot of beer, we wouldn't be so fat. Think about that."

Unemployment Rate

"I can't believe the Obama camp getting all excited like unemployment disappeared entirely. It was 3/10 of 1 percent. Wow, that is really ridiculous."

Election Fever

"Some in Loveland not only take election fever too far, as reported in today's paper, this presidential election has also shown that racism is alive and well for some in our city of love. We aren't Obama supporters and a neighbor who recently found this out hung a Confederate flag for the first time on the back of their house in a place where it's only visible to us, which of course is their constitutional right. It doesn't bother or intimidate us but you'd think if they're so proud of this flag and what it represents they would fly it in front of their house for all to see."

Article Comments

We reserve the right to remove any comment that violates our ground rules, is spammy, NSFW, defamatory, rude, reckless to the community, etc.

We expect everyone to be respectful of other commenters. It's fine to have differences of opinion, but there's no need to act like a jerk.

Use your own words (don't copy and paste from elsewhere), be honest and don't pretend to be someone (or something) you're not.

Our commenting section is self-policing, so if you see a comment that violates our ground rules, flag it (mouse over to the far right of the commenter's name until you see the flag symbol and click that), then we'll review it.
